Where and when was she arrested?? This lady is a thief and it was only time that would show it. Here it is. Stealing from our post office is like stealing from us. She isnt even sorry, denies it happening and thinks it is funny. Her entire family didnt even know about this including her husband. They learned it from their peers that learned it from the radio and tv. Grow up Tricia Goldsmith. Take responsibility and quit teaching your kids stealing is ok, obviously it isnt!!

Joe, I would like to correct your comment to avoid any confusion. This individual's name is NOT Patricia Knoup Goldsmith. There are a few Patricia Knoup's around this area and it would be very embarrassing for those women to be caught in this confusion. Please think twice before bashing individuals... it makes you look stupid!

the post office didn't pay her a very high salary - i don't think she had any retirement benefits either. I think they also gave her time to repay the funds and she didn't. :(
